Roast Chicken Gravy is a rich, savory sauce traditionally made from the drippings of roasted chicken, combined with flour, butter, and chicken stock for thickness and flavor. Often enhanced with herbs like thyme or parsley, this classic gravy is a staple in Western cuisines, particularly British and American comfort food traditions. Nutritionally, it provides essential protein and minerals from the chicken stock but can be high in sodium and fat depending on preparation. Butter and flour add calories while contributing to texture and richness, making moderation key for those mindful of heart health or calorie intake. Homemade versions allow for control over ingredients, offering a healthier alternative to store-bought gravies, which may contain added preservatives. Roast Chicken Gravy pairs beautifully with roasted meats, mashed potatoes, and vegetables, offering a hearty and flavorful addition to meals when enjoyed in balance.
